I struggle with foreshortened poses as well. One fast approach that sometimes works for quick sketches is to think in basic shape like cylinders and cones. For example, a foreshortened leg, start with a “big” circle or oval for the joint at the hip and a small circle for the knee connected with straight-ish lines.

I'm absolutely not an expert so maybe someone else has better advice, but when I tend to lean too far in one direction on certain features, I find it helpful to consciously try to lean too far the other way. I.e. if your torsos get too large, try to draw them way too small. When you've done it enough you kind of recalibrate your mind to interpret the proportions more accurately. As for things that slow you down, I think it's inexperience that forces us think harder when translating what we see into lines. Just keep practicing and keep it simple!

08/01/2022. Hello, I’ve done a few mannequins with a bit of landmarks. I found myself struggling to find the perspective of the torso, especially if it’s twisting. Any feedback is welcome, thanks!
You can try drawing the bean in perspective first then adjusting the box in it, since drawing bean is relatively easy.
